After a natural break in our 6 month campaign it is time, again, to face the threat that lurks below the surface of our every day lives. Hastur has been thwarted…or has he ? And at what cost ? One character death and six left gibbering on the edge of insanity. Come and join us v

The session started mid way through a fight, the party on the first floor were in the midst of a battle with a Sahuagin patrol, while Val’Vael invisibly searched the 2nd floor and the Dwarf Grimm with two Lizardmen investigated a Chief’s quarters. The battle raged for anot

It is the 41st millennium… For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is master of mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invi

White Star Rising….Or Red Star running? SS Panthers take the Northern Bridge without contest. The HQ Panther can bee seen parked right on the actual crossing. The Panthers are joined by a Recce ‘Puma’ armoured car, who is moving out to the east of the town to try to

Saturday. How wonderful a day. I hope you’re taking advantage of it. I ran a bunch of errands this morning. Now I’m working on painting, of all things. I can’t tell you the last time I painted minis. It’s been quite a while. But while I wait for this color to dry, lets get you […]

While many focus on the Germans and the Japanese in terms of the Axis powers in WWII, let’s not forget that the Italians were part of that as well. They had quite the fighting force and engaged in actions all around Europe as well as North Africa. They’re also hitting tabletops in Flames of War […]

Mystic Vale lets players actually customize their cards as they play. Using the clear sleeves, players will insert clear upgrades to their cards, building their deck in an entirely new way. The game already has several expansions, but more is on the way. In this case, it’s Conclave, and it will be available in April. […]

Big miniatures are my favorites. Sure, I have a fondness for Gretchin and Skinks and such. But the really huge figures are my real favorites. And Kings of War: Vanguard has some huge minis coming with it. Mantic is showing off renders of the giants that you can get as part of the Late Pledge […]

I love draft events. Sure, there’s something to creating a deck ahead of time and making sure it’s as tightly-wound as you can. But there’s also something to flying by the seat of your pants, making your deck from a limited set of cards and having to use only your wits and skill to make […]

Woo! Friday! Woo! My week went by quick. But, being busy, that’ll happen. And there’s certainly been plenty going on. It’ll be nice to have a weekend to decompress. Though there’s also Game Day up at the Milton Library tomorrow. We’ll see if I make it out there. Also thinking about making another cheesecake, because […]

If you know me, you know I’m a fan of easily-portable games that can just slide into your gaming backpack and go with you. Palm Island is just such a game. It even has a solo variant so you can play when nobody else is around. Portal Dragon will be bringing it to Kickstarter in […]

Game Boy Geek is looking to create a 6th season of their show. Their mission is to help you find the next board game you’ll love. As part of the campaign, you can get cool tchotchkes based on the show, but you can also get some extras for a whole bunch of different board and […]

Giant robot alert! We have giant robot alert! Try and keep calm! IDW Games has announced they’re teaming up with Taberna Jogo to bring us Galaxy Hunters. The game is a worker-placement style game (which I love) with giant robots (which I also love). So you know I’ll be paying attention to where this one’s […]

Well, I mean, I realize we just passed Valentine’s Day, but the vibe I’m getting from the new The Other Side preview from Wyrd is decidedly more Halloween. You know, I bet it’s a real pain when you get something stuck in your eye that’s in the middle of your back. That’s gotta be annoying. […]

We are running an ongoing RuneQuest Campaign set in Sartar. The Empire of the Wyrms Friends are no more and the Lunar Peace does not sit well with the Population The Lunar Peace These are the terms negotiated in 1613 by Redbird on behalf of Temertain for settlement of hostilities between the Imperial forces of the great Red Moon Goddess and the rebellious tribes of the lands of Sartar: • The Provincial Army is allowed to take control of the cities of Boldhome, Duck Point, Wilmskirk, Jonstown, Swenstown, Aldachur and Alone. • Plunder and standards taken from the Lunar army at the Battle of Hofstaring’s Flood shall be returned to the Empire. • Sartar is recognized as an independent client kingdom of the Empire. The King of Sartar agrees to accept a Lunar representative as an advisor. • The rebellious tribes of the Kingdom agree to a tribute of one cow per free adult for the first year and half that each year in perpetuity. • Sacrifices to and worship of the Rebel God Orlanth is forbidden. • The person and property of Lunar citizens shall be inviolate. • Temertain son of Jotisan of the line of Sartar is recognized as the legitimate King of Sartar by one and all. • This treaty is valid for as long as there is a King in Sartar and a Moon in the Sky. May whoever breaks this treaty suffer the loss of the King or their Moon and their lives forfeit. War Clouds are building, Evil Cults from the North of Dragon Pass are pushing South under the Sky of Lunar Ignorance and Tolerance. Snake Pipe Hollows chaotic denizens are getting clever and their plans are spreading South and west turning innocent tribes into mindless shells of Disease and Corruption. It is into this story our Hero’s emerge, From years of Service in Tribal and Mercenary organizations, The Sons of Humakt and their Allies are forging a fellowship that can stand up to the Lunar occupation throw back the spread of the Dark Cults and ultimately bring about Change to the heart of the Lands of Sartar!
